Written from a materials science perspective, Spintronics presents the latest research developments in the field. The text provides a general understanding of structure-property relationships as a basis for the design of new materials, which leads to the development of new devices.

This book gives an overview of the physics of Heusler compounds ranging from fundamental properties of these alloys to their applications. Especially Heusler compounds as half-metallic ferromagnetic and topological insulators are important in condensed matter science due to their potential in magnetism and as materials for energy conversion. The book is written by world-leaders in this field. It offers an ideal reference to researchers at any level.

This work focuses on the investigation of multilayer structures, employed in spintronics devices, by a number of techniques based on hard x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (HAXPES). The application of hard x-rays increases the inelastic mean free path of the emitted electrons what makes HAXPES a non-destructive bulk sensitive probe for solid state research, especially studies of buried layers. Magnetoelectronic properties such as exchange splitting in ferromagnetic materials as well as the macroscopic magnetic ordering can be studied by magnetic circular dichroism in photoemission (MCDAD).
